Just curious
How many days a week do you go to the gym?
Do you workout outside of the gym? In addition or in replace of the gym....
How long do you work out for?
I try to go there as many times as I can, but I just cannot get myself there every day. I am just wondering what other people do.....

During the school year, I go to the gym 4-5 days a week but when my kids are home in the summer, once, possibly twice, and I walk alot in the morning and in the evening, swim, and force myself to do some kind of dvd. I am working through the 30 day shred and Kettlebell Bombshell right now.0
-
2-3 days strength training
1-2 days Zumba
So anywhere from 3-5 days a week0 -
4-5 days a week. I like to do mostly walking. I am not in that great of shape, getting there though slowly but surely! I like to do Leslie Sansone dvds at home b/c I can fit it in when it works for me.0
-
2 days of intense cardio at the gym (45-60 min)
1 day of strength training w/ my trainer (60 min)
Plus, at least 2 walks per week (2-4 miles)0 -

6-7 days a week, usually 7.
5 days kickboxing (50min)
2 days running (20-40min)
I avoid the gym like the plague because I'm self-conscious about the excess jiggle that goes on whenever my body's in motion...0 -
5 days...
5 walking for 45 minutes at 4.0mph
at LEAST 3 days of gym, sometimes 4 (30 minute elypticall, 15 - 25 minutes of weights or calisthenics depending on the day)
Sunday is major house cleaning day (squats, tons of stairs, etc) but I don't log it, and I don't log mountain biking either...those are just fun things to do on weekends0 -
6 - 7 days a week
average 60 min a workout
I workout at home or on the road with P90X
when I'm not doing P90X, I ride my bike
If I choose not to do P90X on the road, I use the ellipitical or tread mill :happy:0 -
I usually run four miles four days a week and then bike 12 miles once or twice. I always give myself a day off. There are mornings that I need sleep more than I need exercise. Three small kids will do that to you!0
-
7 days a week. Everyday, I do P90X+ in my house, but I also try and walk/run at least a few of those days on top of my indoor workouts. I love being outside too much not to be!!0
-
5 days resistance /cardio 3 days/ and pick up a dumbbell whenever I am stressed....0
-
I usually try to do 4-6 days a week. My body and muscles need a rest at least once a week. I usually do the gym 4 days and then on the other two I try and do something at home or walk during my lunch. I have started doing yoga sometimes on my days off.0
-
Usually 5 days. Usually, I do low impact power walking for about an hour 4x a week and I run at least once a week. Sometimes, if I'm feeling particularly energetic, I'll run and walk on the same day. I do strength training at least 2x a week. I usually like working out outside because I can take my kids with me. The gym daycare has off hours that don't work for us right now.
Plus I lift a 30 lb. person 1000x times a day into and out his carseat, plus the stroller, plus all the other stuff that goes with running a household.0 -
I workout 6- 7 days a week (normally 7):
* I run 2 miles at work during my lunch break (20 - 22 mins)
* I do Zumba 5 days a week (55 - 65 min: depending on DVD)
* I do Biggest Loser Power Sculpt 2 days a week (55 min)0 -
I workout at home 6 days a week and have one rest day. For now I am doing the weightlifting parts of P90X on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I run the other 3 days. This is my last week of P90X though and I don't know what I'm going to do next yet.0
-
I work out everyday because I walk my dog -- and she's big, so we have to walk fast. Other than that, I go to the gym 3x a week to do the elliptical and treadmill and starting next week, yoga. I do Wii fit at home 4 days in a row, take a day off, and go back to 4 days. So some days I'm at the gym and doing Wii fit. and I love Wii fit because its a game -- so you're working out, without really knowing your working out.0
-
I work out 5-6 times per week (I aim for 6 per week but it always seems I've been skipping one of my 3 weight lifting days recently). I do a long run once a week (usually on Sundays), strength + cardio MWF, speedwork on Tuesdays, and whatever cardio I feel like on Thursdays (try to use Saturday as a rest day).0

No Gym, I work out at home or sprint in the park.

That is!! go you!keep it up
I work out between 5-6 days a week. I run almost everyday and I incorporate strength training 3-4 days. I'll do cross training some days instead of running -like zumba or the arc trainer at the gym.0 -
4 days in the gym (Planet Fitness) Cardio & then Circuit training
No Fridays and at least 30 minutes of cardio via Wii Fit on weekends.
Gotta do something or my body starts getting stiff.0 -
I don't like the gym very much to be honest, so I try to do walking whenever I can during the week (usually 30 minutes 1-2 times a week) and I like volleyball so I joined a club and I train once a week for 135 minutes usually. It's good fun. Other than that, I might go for a 20/30 minute cycling ride during the weekend. I don't have a set schedule for anything else but volleyball, although I think it might help. The major thing about the entire exercise routine is that I try not to look at it as a chore, to find something active that I really like and keep practicing. Company helps too.0
-
6 days a week for me. I'm doing Insanity and on the 4th week so anywhere from 30-55 mins depending on the day. Once the second month starts It will be closer to 55 mins every day. Sunday is my day of rest, but I try to get a walk in with my bf and our dog, of about 3 miles or more.0
-
I workout at least 5x a week. I usually get lazy on the weekends and don't do anything. But now that it is nicer out, we go for hikes over the weekend so that kind of counts. I do 25-45 minutes a day in the morning and occasionally a 40 minute jog on the treadmill in the evenings. I don't have a gym membership so I use DVDs and have a treadmill in my basement.0
